YouTube

Picture
YouTube is a wonderful resource you can use to illustrate, learn, enhance, or even create with. 
You will automatically have access to a YouTube account when you create a GMAIL account. This site is filled with super videos. Yes, we have to be careful about what we choose, and we have to teach the students to do the same, but think of how this tool might be used to help those students who have difficulty with receiving information from text and are better suited to learn through watching.
It could also allow for students to utilize their everyday tools such as smart phones and cameras that have video capabilities to allow them to create shorts for assignments.
If you want to though, simply rip a video off of YouTube and embed it on your site page to show the kids something about your lesson.
